Crunchy Asian Ramen Noodle Salad Aka Basically The Best Potluck Salad Ever Recipes

CRUNCHY ASIAN RAMEN SALAD

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. While the butter is melting, crush the ramen noodles while still inside the package. Remove the seasoning packet (the seasoning packet is NOT used in this recipe). Add the crushed noodles to the melted butter in the skillet. Sauté stirring frequently, until the noodles are a golden brown. Remove from skillet and let cool.
• Cut the Napa cabbage, slice the green onions, and combine this with the bagged cabbage in a large mixing bowl. Add half of the dried cranberries and walnuts (you can also toast these first before adding or buy them already toasted). Add half of the Ramen noodles.
• Combine the oil, vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce in a jar and shake a few minutes; until the sugar has dissolved. You can also put the ingredients in a bowl and use a whisk to combine.
• A few minutes before serving this cabbage salad, pour the salad dressing over the greens. Mix. Add the remaining Ramen Noodles, cranberries, and walnuts on the top.

CRUNCHY RAMEN NOODLE SALAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Spread the crumbled ramen noodles and sliced almonds out on a baking sheet, and stir a bit to combine. Bake for about 5 minutes, or until the almonds and noodles are slightly toasted and golden. Remove baking sheet, and give the mixture a good stir to toss. Then return it to the oven and toast for an additional 3 minutes. Keep a very close eye on the mixture so that it does not burn. Remove and set aside.
• Add ingredients (including the vinaigrette) together in a large bowl, and toss until combined.
• Serve immediately, or cover and refrigerate for up to 3 days. (This salad is much better eaten the first day, as the noodles lose their "crunch" the longer it sits, and the avocado may brown a bit. Still, it's perfectly edible and enjoyable even after a few days!)
• Whisk all ingredients together until combined.
